SnapProtect Install Questions

LYCNetapp — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:13:26 GMT

I'm trying to configure SnapProtect to backup CIFS shares and Hyper-V VMs hosted on a FAS 2220, which will then be replicated to another site's FAS 2250 for off site storage.

I'm running Data OnTap 8.2.2 in 7 mode at both sites, have SnapProtect 10 R2 installed on a VM and a separate VM with OnCommand and Data Fabric Manager 5.2.

If anyone could provide direction or tips on getting this up and running, or if anyone knows the most recent guide available online that would help me would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

I recommend you this guide for backup and replication of CIFS volumes in a 7-mode (OCUM 5.2) environment.

SnapProtect Cookbook and Best Practices for NAS Data with Data ONTAP 8.2 7-Mode

For Hyper-V, use this guide from page 62.

SnapProtect Cookbook and Best Practices for Hyper-V on clustered Data ONTAP 82

Thanks, but those links are accessible only to Channel Partners. Is there somewhere else I can find or buy this material at?

Need the same information also. This documentation is not available as a customer, just channel partners. Can someone please send me this information also? We are a customer. We are going through the inital installation of Snap Protect Version 10 R2 for our 8840 Netapp.
